THAT TASTE EXISTS
EPISODE 40 REQUESTS BLESSING
A week passed quickly, today is clear until Saturday, it is time we go to Surabaya. I deliberately did not tell my mom if I wanted to go home. Let's just surprise...
Gio wants to get in the car. I took the train, so Gio wouldn't be tired. We're back Sunday, Monday is work. Gio insisted on going to the car, he said so he could be alone. Yes, I followed him....
We departed from Jogja at 05:00 am, on the way we stopped for breakfast. Gio chose through the toll road, the estimate before noon we have reached Surabaya.
Not much stuff we brought. We bring gudeg and other typical Jogja food for souvenirs.
Arrive at mom's house. I knocked on the door. A maid came out, it seemed like a new art, because I didn't know her.
"Excuse me...bu Heni or Mr Ricky is there, mbak?" my many.
"There, non. I call for a moment. This is non who? "
"I'm Vania"
"Wait a minute, non. I call you madam".
After 5 minutes I heard hurried footsteps along with a voice calling my name.
"Vania... honey... You're home, son? How come you don't ngabari mami if you want to go home, baby.", once the gate is open my mom immediately hugged me, kissed me. I also returned my arms and kisses. "Mami kangen nak.., mami kangen", mami's eyes are wet.
"Vania also misses mommy's cheeks" I held my arms and kissed her cheeks.
"Let's go in first, baby. ", take my mom.
I just remembered Gio. I turned around, pulled and held Gio's hand, "Known, mi. ", I said.
"Is this what Gio's name is?", asked mami
"Yes, aunt. I'm Gio" said Gio while greeting mami.
"Vania has a lot of stories about you. Come on in, kid.... Come on. ", take mommy friendly.
"Which fire, mi? ", just as I was done with it, the sound of a papi car came. Not long papi in.
I went straight to Papi. Papi was surprised to mix happy, like mami, papi hugged me tightly and kissed me, I replied. I can see there's fog in papi's eyes.
In this situation I can feel so much affection papi and mami to me.
"Pi.knewin, pi... It's Gio", I introduced Gio to papi.
"Good day, um. I'm Gio", Gio introduced himself, shaking hands with papi.
"Yes... Yes, I'm Ricky Bastian, Vania's papi", greet the friendly papi.
"Darling... How come you don't know mami papi if you want to go home? ", asked mami softly
"Let's surprise, mi", I said.
"Bad child ! Next time I have to say, yes.! When are you in Surabaya? "
"Tomorrow the day has come back, mi. We work on Monday".
"That's a big deal ! mami's still missing, baby. ", mami's stroking my hair.
While Gio had been cool in talking to each other, it was fast that they were familiar.
A few days later, Nami invited us to lunch. "Let's have lunch first, eat potluck, yeah.... My mom is not ready. "
That afternoon we ate together. Mommy cook vegetables asem, sambal terasi, fried empal, salted fish and sauteed kale plus gudeg that I brought from Jogja. Home cooking that you serve is common but the taste is amazing.
After eating, I drove Gio to the guest room to put down his bag and rest.
So did I, I went to my room, the room I missed. As soon as I entered the room I immediately threw myself in bed. I'm tired and sleepy. I was also sound asleep.
At 17:30 we were all tidy, ready to go. We went to the food festival. Lots of food choices there.
After eating we talked and joked. "Gio has known Vania for a long time?" ask papi.
"Known 10 months, om, since Vania entered the cost, I happen to also cost there and our room is next to each other. "
"How is your relationship with my son?", asked Papi again.
"I've been in a relationship with Vania for eight months. Since the first acquaintance with Vania I have felt interested and liked him, om", replied Gio.
"Do you love my son? ", papi asked Gio again
"Very ... I love and love my son. Actually I came to Surabaya to ask permission on om and aunt to apply for Vania. I feel that I have been steady and sure that I want to make Vania my future wife. What does om and aunt allow?", Gio said fluently and confidently.
"Basically om and aunty are up to Vania, because who lives her. How darling? Do you want to accept Gio's proposal? ", ask papi
"Yes, pi" I nodded my head.
"Son Gio has already heard Vania's answer..?! and when is the proposal? ", ask papi
"In two weeks my parents will come here to propose and we will get engaged" Gio replied
"It's fast.. .", said mami.
"Yes tan, because I already feel steady with Vania, so I want to immediately formalize our relationship" Gio replied seriously.
"If indeed you are sure and there is such certainty we will prepare everything. We will wait for the arrival of your parents, Gio" said papi.
"There's one more thing I'd like to tell you, auntie..."
"Whatis that? Just say. ", said papi.
"If om and aunt agree, I plan to marry Vania six months after the engagement. Do you and auntie mind? "
"If Vania agrees, we don't mind either. Are you ready, baby? ", ask papi to me
I looked at the papi and nodded my head.
"Our son is already big, mi.. has been proposed by people. ", said papi to mami. She smiled and hugged me with misty eyes.
"I ask for prayers and blessings from om sama aunty.", please Gio.
"Of course we will pray and bless you. But son Gio, from now on call us papi mami, just like Vania", replied mami. Papi nodded, agreeing with mom's words
" Good pi, mi", said Gio.
